MSB(i)
3 Most importantly, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.
4 “Where is the promise of His coming?” they will ask. “Ever since our fathers fell asleep, everything continues as it has from the beginning of creation.”
5 But they deliberately overlook the fact that long ago by God’s word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water,
6 through which the world of that time perished in the flood.
7 And by His word, the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
